Memory Lane

As my 15 year high school reunion is fast approaching (July 11th), I have been browsing old photos reminiscing about a time in my life that seems forever ago. I found some photos of myself from a weekend modeling job and I am using them as inspiration in my ongoing battle with weight. For those of you who REALLY know me, you know I HATE any picture taken of me, but wait for it ........... I actually like these ;-) Therefore, I wanted to share these with those of you who didn't know me back then and show you that I haven't always been a camera shy person :-)

My Sweet Precious Emmy

I wanted to share a few photos of Emmy that I find show just how much she is loved ;-) Enjoy!

She has her own side of the bed!

She gets so tired from playing that she totally trashes my bed, whoever said dogs didn't have trouble sleeping has never met Emmy!

She loves to sleep in!

She takes naps all over the house!

I'm keeping Little Bit!!

I'm so sorry it's been a while! I'm still getting use to having this blog thing ;-) I just wanted all to know that I have decided to keep Little Bit (he's now 3 1/2 weeks old)!!! He is absolutely a beautiful little colt. I was a little leary about keeping him as he is a boy and I wasn't sure how I would feel about that as I've always envisioned myself with a filly ;-) He is just to much of a great horse to pass on though!! He's MY very first purchase of a miniature horse :-) Depending on how everything goes and what he likes, our neighbor's little girl, Abbie, and/or my parents will be showing him in something ;-) I'll be behind the scenes!! It has been a really exciting time! I'm looking forward to bonding more with him and learning the ropes of training these little ones so I can get more!!

I thought I would share in closing some new photos of Little Bit ......

This is one of him eating big boy food!!

He absolutely loves to be scratched :-)

First time in the halter! He didn't know what to think about it!

Check out those eyes looking sideways at me!! He posed for this picture and then took off while cow kicking at me at the same time %} He thinks I'm his playmate ... ummm .... I don't think so!!

Running, Running, Running!! He is always running .... so much energy ... wish I had just a tad of it!!

Carmel's New Baby!

Carmel's new baby boy! Official name is J-Bar-L's Little Bit Impressive. No barn name yet as still have to see his personality unfold!

Update on my Hand

I saw the orthopedic surgeon yesterday and as long as I don't hit my hand on anything for a while I won't need surgery!!! He redid my splint so I have a lot of room now if I want! When he took off the old splint my middle finger was flattened!! He said that would be one of the reasons my hand is hurting so bad!!
